Instagram post 2155371731005680003_2331335692 Where did you meet your most recent friend? Raise your hand if it was on social media! 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ . . @sweatsav put her hand on her belly, so I put my hand on my belly 🤰🏼 The @wearfigs x @lululemon retreat in Ojai has been nothing short of a dream. For as much negativity as social media can bring into someone’s life, it can equally (or even more) bring in positivity. Some of my closest friends I have met through social media. But truly, it’s really important to get to know some of these people that you’re following so regularly for more than just their @ handle. Super thankful to have had that opportunity these last couple of days. For all of you who may not be able to meet the people you follow IRL, remember that they are humans just like you, have good days and bad, and emotions and ideas that they are sharing with you in a vulnerable fashion. Give em some love 💕 (IRL or on the ‘gram)! Leave a positive comment for at least one person that you follow today! ——————————————————— Tag your newest friend from social media below!!

I used to wear this beauty of a scrub color but now we wear grey. I know a lot of you have been asking for this color for a long time... so I wanted you to see it here first! You can use my code FIGSxMajestic for a discount on their website if you’re in the market for some new threads👌🏼 Ok I may have also wanted to give you a sneak peek of my closet too😍 I am in heaven everyday when I walk in. Chris has a little corner (how ironic-where my newsletter subscribers at?) in the back. He tells me he’s very thankful for this tiny corner of my closet 😂 ————————————————— To my healthcare professionals, what color scrubs do you wear at work?!

Instagram post 2151685091678490144_2331335692 “But how do you make it all work with your schedules”? . . I get this question constantly! My short answer... it’s definitely not easy. My long answer... 😬 . . . 1️⃣ Schedule your dates in advance! Buy an old school calendar and hang it somewhere. Mark off your work obligations and then pencil in those dates at least a month in advance. It’s really important to have those dates to look forward to 2️⃣ Practice listening skills. Put the phone or computer down (I have trouble with this one) and look your partner in the eye and really listen. Really focus during that time that you do have together, especially if it’s minimal. Before you know it you’ll have forgotten about your phone. We have a ‘question a day’ book that we try and tackle when we can. I’ll reference on my stories 3️⃣ Leave each other notes! We love this one. It’s fun to wake up (at whatever time that may be) and see a hand written note by your partner. I like to stuff em in the lunch box occasionally too 4️⃣ On days off, do everything together. I’m kind of independent and introverted, but I actually love this. Chris and I run our errands together, workout together, watch tv together, you get the point. We never schedule things with friends on days that we have off together. Even if we could tackle more things if we split up, we avoid doing that 5️⃣ Couples’ therapy. For reals, even if you don’t feel like you need it, having a therapist to help you learn techniques to make your relationship better, can be helpful. Chris and I did pre-marital counseling and we saved our work books to reference when needed ———————————————— How do you all make it work with your significant others? Share your tips too!

Instagram post 2150232837482315377_2331335692 Who out there is a science nerd, like me? 💀 . . There is one thing about my job that never changes. It’s the thing that always keeps me going, and thirsty for more. And that’s the fact that I love science 🧬 You always hear people say that work won’t feel like a job if you love what you do. Let’s be real... medicine is rough. It still feels like a job, some days. I don’t know if I can agree with that statement, because I think it depends on the mental and physical aspects of your job too. And doesn’t everyone have those days where you’re just thinking, “why the heck am I even here”!? I’m totally a realist. So although I won’t go that far, I will encourage you all to find exactly what makes you passionate. You can’t fake passion. Don’t do it for money, don’t do it for fame, don’t do it to make other people happy. Because you’ll end up miserable. When you find your passion, and you are confident, it will lead you to success. ✨ So even on those days where someone’s angry with me, or I’m so busy I can’t eat or go to the bathroom, or I’m so exhausted that I fall asleep as soon as I get home... I still know that I’m right where I’m supposed to be in life, and I was meant to be in this career👩🏻‍⚕️ ————————————————— Comment with 💀🧬🦠 if you love science like me!

Instagram post 2148999837280946880_2331335692 Does it feel like Fall where you live? 🍁🎃🍂 . . . The one gripe I have about Southern California, is that there are no (real) seasons. I’m a midwestern gal, I LOVE fall. Like leaves changing color, brisk temperature fall. It may look like fall in this photo, but I’m literally sweating underneath this beautiful scarf that I insisted on wearing. After all, it’s chilly in the morning but by noon you’re wishing you were in your swimsuit here 🤷🏻‍♀️ Excuse me while I take a dip in our new pool #OctoberInSoCal 😂 ——————————————————————Where are you from? Are you experiencing the REAL fall weather?

Weekend decorating phase II in process 🤩 Our front yard is no where near as big as my parents, but my intimidation level is much less with a smaller space. We have some landscaping and gate building in the works, but my MAIN priority right now is styling my porch with all things fall 😍 Can’t wait to show you guys when it’s done! I’ve dreamed about a porch for years! —————————————————————— Do you style your porch for Fall? DM me your porch styling photos so I can share them! 🎃👻

Any kind, any style. Just bring em’ to momma! It’s in my blood 🤤🌮 Shop the look on DrMajestic.com + the @liketoknow.it app. Lately I’ve been really into fish tacos, make it extra spicy! We also have a restaurant near us that makes BOMB veggie tacos within butternut squash. It may sound weird but I assure you, it’s 🔥 ———————————————————————What’s your favorite kind of taco?
